Magnetic resonance in the ordered phases of the 2D frustrated quantum magnet Cs2CuCl4

The temperature evolution of the electron spin resonance is studied at cooling the crystal samples of Cs2CuCl4 through the Neel point 0.62 K. A coexistence of the high-frequency spinon type resonance developed in the spin-liquid phase and of the low-frequency antiferromagnetic resonance was found in the ordered phase. The low-frequency magnetic resonance spectrum in the low field range has two gapped branches and corresponds well to the spectrum of spin excitations of a planar spiral spin structure with two axes of the anisotropy. The field induced phase transitions result in a more complicated low-frequency spectra.

Modes of magnetic resonance in the spin liquid phase of Cs2CuCl4

We report the observation of a frequency shift and splitting of the electron spin resonance (ESR) mode of the low-dimensional S=1/2 frustrated antiferromagnet Cs2CuCl4 in the spin-correlated state below the Curie-Weiss temperature 4 K but above the ordering temperature 0.62 K. The shift and splitting exhibit strong anisotropy with respect to the direction of the applied magnetic field and do not vanish in zero field. The low-temperature evolution of spin resonance response is a result of the specific modification of one-dimensional spinon continuum under the action of the uniform Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DM) within the spin chains. Parameters of the uniform DM interaction are derived from the experiment.

Continuum in the spin excitation spectrum of a Haldane chain (erratum)

There was a slight error in calculating the nonlinear sigma-model prediction for the 2-magnon scattering continuum shown in Fig. 2 of cond-mat/0010049, and Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 87}, 017202 (2001). Present erratum explains what was incorrect, and shows a corrected version of the figure. The correction is minor and does not affect main conclusions drawn in the original paper.

Continuum in the spin excitation spectrum of a Haldane chain, observed by neutron scattering in CsNiCl3

The spin excitation continuum, expected to dominate the low-energy fluctuation spectrum in the Haldane spin chain around the Brillouin zone center, q=0, is directly observed by inelastic magnetic neutron scattering in the S=1 quasi-1D antiferromagnet CsNiCl3. We find that the single mode approximation fails, and that a finite energy width appears in the dynamic correlation function S(q,omega) for q < 0.5pi. The width increases with decreasing q, while S(q,omega) acquires an asymmetric shape qualitatively similar to that predicted for the 2-magnon continuum in the nonlinear sigma-model.
